Police Recover Stolen Vehicles During ‘Operation Steady Guard’ In Sangre Grande

Officers of the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS) recovered two (2) intact stolen vehicles and one (1) which had been completely stripped, during a co-ordinated anti-crime exercise conducted in the Sangre Grande District on Friday (5th June, 2026).

According to the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS), the operation, dubbed “Operation Steady Guard,” was conducted between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM and involved Officers of the Sangre Grande Criminal Investigations Department (CID) and the Eastern Division Task Force (EDTF).

Acting on intelligence information, Officers proceeded to the Turure Road, Guaico area, where they conducted inquiries in relation to a white Kia K2700 motor vehicle that had been reported stolen earlier that day in Arima.

During the exercise, Officers discovered a silver-grey Honda City motor vehicle parked along a bushy track off the Turure Main Road. Subsequent checks revealed that the vehicle had been reported stolen in the Western Division earlier that morning.

Further searches led to the recovery of the stolen Kia K2700 near an abandoned quarry. Officers also discovered a red Hyundai Elantra hatchback that had been stripped, with its chassis number removed.



Crime scene investigators processed the recovered vehicles; however, no workable fingerprints were obtained.

The recovered vehicles were removed from the scene and conveyed to the Sangre Grande Police Station for safekeeping, pending further investigations.

The TTPS said it “remains committed to the recovery of stolen vehicles, the disruption of criminal activity, and the continued safety and security of communities throughout Trinidad and Tobago.”
